"The way Charlotte stared at her as if she was the only thing that mattered, the solid feeling of her warm fingers interlaced with her own, the way her golden brown eyes gleamed as they never moved from Sutton’s own for an instant. She was getting married to Charlotte Thompson. In a moonlit garden, cocooned by the people who loved them the most, and this was it. This was all that mattered, really. " 

This was everything I wanted from the Those Who Wait story. The yearning, the expressions love, the gentleness and softness between both them but as well as the hard conversations that feel real and honest. 

The growth of Charlotte had to be my favorite aspect of this novel, and her ability to truly feel safe enough with Sutton to speak freely without fear made me so happy. I love seeing her able to tackle her own internal flaws and conflicts with the help of Sutton and the love from her family and seeing her become a more relatable and understood compared to her characterization in the first book made me honestly enjoy this more. 

I enjoyed the pacing a lot, and the introduction of each aspect of their life felt very well done, and  I can't wait to read more about these two in Haley Cass's next book. 

Overall 4.75
